Testing Video on Canon 60D

Saturday, May 21st, 2011

I put this together just so I could see what my 60D was capable of. I am definately no videographer and should probably stick to still images. When it’s actually in focus (manual focus), it’s very sharp. A DSLR allows you to play with depth of field very easily which is something that a normal video camera struggles with. This lets you get some cool out of focus action otherwise known as ‘bokeh’ in your videos. This was shot with a 50mm f/1.8II and a 24-105mm f/4L IS.

Just received this email, this guy seems legitimate right?

My Dear

I am Giancarlo Piroddi a solicitor and personal attorney to Mrs Anselma Piroddi,an Italian citizen, who before her
death was an art collector.Anselma died a few years ago and left me the responsibility of locating and transferring ownership of the estate worth
?1.5million she left for her only son, Angelo Piroddi.

Since then I have made several inquiries to locate the benefactor but this has proved unsuccessful.

Angelo Piroddi has now been confirmed dead, and he died intestate, I have decided to contact you to assist in repatriating the money
and property left behind by my client before they are confiscated or declared unserviceable by her bankers, where the deceased had
an account valued at about ?7,500,000.00 (Seven Million Five hundred Thousand pounds sterling)
as at last months assessment.

The bank has issued me with a notice as the attorney to the deceased to provide the next of kin or the account will be deemed unserviceable within the next
21 official working days, since I have been unsuccessful in locating any of Angelo Piroddi’s heirs over the years,
I seek your consent to present you as the next of kin to Angelo Piroddi’s.

As the attorney to Late Mrs Anselma Piroddi,I have all the necessary legal documents that will be used to back up the claim.
All I require from you is your honest co-operation to enable us see this arrangement through.

I guarantee that this arrangement will be executed under a legitimate banking procedure and the provision of the laws with regards to inheritance will be strictly adhered to,
this will protect you from any breach of the law.

Truly Yours,
